    From the blog...Cathe does an incline press with 30 lb dumbbells. I can often match Cathe on wts

    RE: From the blog...Cathe does an incline press with 30... The last option makes me LOL! :+ I choose the first but I'm somewhere between #1 and #2. I've used 30s for chest press before and a few times even 35s but didn't get too many reps. I'm most comfortable without a spotter at 25s. I...

    Shaq's new show

    I saw the show. I was amazed at how heavy and how bad these kids ate. I agree that he was really naive to think that they would do the workout on their own. I think it's really cool that he's planning to do the diet along with them. I can't wait to see their progress and what they look like...

    Jumping from 15 lbs to 20 lbs for shoulder work

    I recently made that jump to and decided to try 25s, too. What I had to do was work one side at a time and use the other hand to assist slightly.

    Favorite Side Kick In Cathe's Workouts?

    >I think she looks very close to a person with anorexia. Well, I wouldn't exactly say that Jai looks anorexic but she is very thin for my taste. There's one particular workout where she looks extremely thin - I think it might be PLB - where she's on the stability ball - although it may just...

    Lifting isn't really exercise...

    Oh! It just drives me crazy when women think they'll bulk up. Or when they think all they need is cardio. x( I am constantly preaching to my classes that if they don't 'feel' it - "DON'T BE AFRAID TO USE HEAVIER WEIGHTS! It shouldn't be easy!!"

    for any of the runners out there

    I agree with everyone else. I rest my legs when they feel fatigued and do an upper body workout instead but if they feel fine I see no reason why it wouldn't be okay.

    Concert question...

    Shelley - we actually took Michael to see Slipknot a couple of years ago. I figured what "language" they do use, it's not like you can make out ANY of the words anyway. :o Plus, we took him more recently to Beyonce but he was just so impatient about the long wait. If you do take her to...

    i am going to fit camp with monica brant

    Trish - that is very cool! I really admire Monica's physique. She does her FEM camps pretty often in the city I live in but they seem to be more for competitors - which I definitely am not. Anyway, I'll be looking forward to your follow up. Have a great time!:-)

    Favourite 'beverage'?

    Frozen margaritas are my favorite but if I'm being calorie-consious, I'd prefer a rum and diet coke or chardonnay wine. I've never been one to like chocolate and liquor but you girls are making it sound GOOD! :9 }(

    Desperate Housewives

    I agree that they wait too long before bringing new episodes and then disappear again. I always forget what was going on. It's so hard to keep up when they keep doing that!!! x(

    Did you change your name when you got married?

    I wasn't sure I wanted to change mine. It took me a year but I finally did it. I wasn't very fond of my maiden name anyway. A few years after I changed it, I wished I hadn't because I wanted to carry on my dad's name. Then I realized I was not going to give my maiden name to my son anway so...

    Friday fun - do you say words that aren't really words?

    RE: Friday fun - do you say words that aren't really wo... Most of mine come from my son - Instead of mad or upset, we say "poody." Actually, my mom and I are responsible because when he was a baby, he was very temperamental (and still is! ;-) ) so we'd say he was "moody-poody." Over the...

    Who's thinking of going on the Road Trip?

    Kathryn - I would think a lot of people who be interested in meeting you as you've been around the Cathe forums for a long time. I wish I could make it but I won't be able to this year. Anyway, the last RT was not at all like a High School trip. THe ladies were all very friendly. I did not...
